So i'm backing up some dvds (movies(films)) and I was wondering what the best way of doing it is
At the moment i am using OGMRip to make .mkv files cos it keeps the chapters, and if that fails (sometimes it just gets stuck and sometimes the audio is out of sync with the video (or visa versa ) i use AcidRip to make mpg files. But sometimes that doesn't work
So in the ideal world a perfect program would:

Work 99.99% of the time

Keep as much of the orginal dvd as possible eg

Chapters

Languages (not so important)

subtitles

Special features?

play with mythtv over the network

Does such a program exist? If not why not!
Anyone have suggestions of a better way of doing it

Legal who harAccording to wikipedia this is actually illegal in the uk but I swear i read somewhere that it is ok to make 1 backup copy of all digital media (which is what I am / wanting to do)So until pc plod comes a knocking i ain't gona stop

For certain you have to be lost to find the places that can't be found. Elseways, everyone would know where it was

Cool thanks, got k9copy to work for final few dvds that didn't want to play. However I can't find out how to keep chapters and subtitles, etc. I can get it to make avi files that work fine, but not chapters etc. If I create iso images mythtv doesn't want to play them (even though they show up)

Any ideas?

Thanks

Did you have the iso on the machines HDD?

I put some iso images on my nas (mounted on myth box as videos directory) and it didn't like any
Firstly trying to play an iso image it didn't wake up the nas, and after I had waked it up, myth still wouldn't play.
